Francesco Totti Serenaded By AS Roma Home Crowd in Emotional Farewell

By Anthony Blake

In an era where transfers and the fees that accompany them are common and monstrous in nature, Francesco Totti just completed a quarter-century career at one place.

The AS Roma veteran said goodbye to the crowd in an emotional sendoff that saw the 40-year-old get teary-eyed and everyone get a little choked up.

The numbers are staggering for Totti, including 307 goals scored across 786 total competitions, both domestic and international, giving him an average of better than a goal every three appearances.

There’s no doubt he will go down as one of the greatest Italian footballers of all time.
